I am confused as to why the website changes the location of the input coordinates for the cache I am trying to place. no matter how I input the coordinates it places the location in other parts of the world. I understand coordinates, I am well versed in land navigation. is this a program error on the website? finally after a few years I am placing a cache, because I have time now and I cannot even enter it. any hints.tips would be  helpful.

This has never happened to me. And you're using the correct format? Just trying to help.

A good trick is to use (copy and paste) the coords of a nearby cache, then simply change the digits to match your hideout.

I moved this thread because it is not a website bug or feature suggestion.

If you are willing, can you tell us what you were trying to enter for coordinates that were coming out incorrect on the map? It may help us fix an issue and avoid others running into the same problem.
